| 1. A Babe is Born in Bethlehem,
In Bethlehem
Therefore rejoice, Jerusalem.
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
2. He doth within a manger lie,
A manger lie
Whose throne is set above the sky,
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
3. Stillness was all
the manger round,
The manger round,
The creature its Creator found,
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
4. The wise men came,
led by the star,
Led by the star,
God, myrrh, and incense
brought from far,
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
5. His mother is the virgin mild,
The virgin mild,
And He the Father’s only Child,
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
6. Like us, in flesh of human frame,
Of human frame,
Unlike in sin alone He came,
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
7. The Holy Trinity be praised,
Hallelujah
To God our ceaseless
thanks be raised,
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
